...but, this isn't a thread asking about whether to get an eReader. This is a specific thread weighing the pros and cons of two very similar eReaders. So, Yunalesca's "stick with books" mentality is not only valueless here, but also likely trollbait or him taking the opportunity to just publicly hate on something he doesn't regard too highly. I think everynametaken's comment here (and above) is justified (although, I probably wouldn't have fed the troll).
I used to hate on eReaders and eBooks as well, but I have since become a convert for various reasons (not the least of which is that I've simply run out of space to store all these paper books that I own, read, and want to own). It's just not very nice to come to a thread asking for advice on a particular topic just to say, "both answers are wrong." Especially when it's something so subjective.

Nook e-ink touchscreen. Doesn't have the idiocy of the Amazon DRM, and it's conveniently shaped. *NM*

I don't think it's accurate to say real books will never be obsolete.
